WHO IS OBSESSED WITH WHOM ???

!!!!

27 JANUARY 16

I’M NOT OBSESSED WITH YOU, YOU’RE OBSESSED WITH ME:

This morning, Donald Trump’s campaign manager Corey Lewandowski on
Morning Joe claimed “Megyn Kelly is totally obsessed with Mr. Trump.” http://vlt.tc/295p
Following on Trump’s ridiculous assertion the other day that “no one
had heard of Megyn Kelly” prior to their debate clash and his follow-on
negging, it is impossible to draw any other conclusion than that Trump
is absolutely and thoroughly obsessed with the Fox News host, on an El
Chapo level rarely seen in American presidential politics.

It’s easy to see why, for a man who claims to be a Don Juan of sexual
prowess and romantic capability – an issue that Senator Ben Sasse has
recently raised questions about. http://vlt.tc/295r
Just look back at this interview where he dings candidates for dodging
a Newsmax debate he was hosting, where his interest in Kelly and his
compliments directed toward her are readily apparent. http://vlt.tc/295s
Why does Kelly reject his obvious affection? Does she not appreciate
the many times he has sent her newspaper clippings about himself with
the word billionaire circled multiple times? (This is something he
actually does when pitching woo.) The entire thing doesn’t make sense.
Trump is the model of masculinity and virility and success for the
modern age. What’s not to like?

The only reasonable conclusion to draw is that Kelly is obsessed, in a
negative way, with Donald J. Trump. Therefore, he has made the decision
to withdraw from this debate. His full statement is here. http://vlt.tc/295u Fox News is holding its ground, understanding that who runs the world but girls, and keeping Kelly as debate moderator. http://vlt.tc/295i
There is some irony in this: no news channel has featured more
pro-Trump views than Fox News, where Eric Bolling and others every day
bend over backwards to defend him. And yet it is Fox that has attracted
Trump’s ire, and their unwillingness to undermine their star talent at
his request frustrates him to no end. http://vlt.tc/295v So he chooses not to run. http://vlt.tc/2968

This strikes me as a rare tactical mistake for Trump. I assumed he would
draw this out in a “will he, won’t he” manner until the point where the
debate arrived, where he could swoop in and say “I can take your
questions, but if they’re unfair, I’ll leave” or something like that.
Instead, this means the final debate before Iowa – the one Iowans
historically view at much higher levels than any other – will not
feature Donald Trump, and could provide an opportunity for one of his
opponents to overperform. It also makes him look weak and petty instead
of strong and invulnerable.

Meanwhile, somewhere in snowy New York, Donald J. Trump stands outside
Megyn Kelly's house in the snow, boombox raised over his head, playing
Lana Del Rey's National Anthem, his cheek stained with a single tear. http://vlt.tc/295q
